Steve is a chemist that has geek-ified his arms with tattoos. He started innocently enough with Batman, then added Joker and Harley Quinn to the Batman theme. Then his problem got serious. He had his artist, Chris Thompson at Slave to the Needle, draw up a Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy themed half-sleeve. He wanted something to combine Don’t Panic, 42, science, and space. There was a brief moment of panic when Chris the tattoo guy included the Earth in the design, but Steve calmly explained that Earth isn’t in the Hitchhiker’s Guide. Luckily Chris didn’t replace the Earth with a highway, but rather a cool explosion.

But Steve wasn’t done after getting the half-sleeve. Like many addictions, it’s hard to stop once you start. He had come to love Neil Gaiman’s Sandman comics and went back to Chris to design a sleeve based on the sigils of The Endless with Delirium as the background.

I highly doubt this will be the last we see of Steve on here. Check out the full gallery of pics:
